Comments: This is my first pair of LunarGlides. I'd tried them previously, but they'd always seemed short and pushed me into a larger size ... which then made the width too sloppy. Nike apparently slimmed them down, and these fit me great in a size-12. The Lunarlon provides a ride that's definitely plush but not spongy. The upper feels good, with no obvious seams and no hotspots after ~100mi. I've replaced the insoles with Superfeet, which slide right in and don't move around (although they squeak!). Good shoe, and I'm glad I kept trying them on as Nike evolved them. (Me: 6', 180lbs, neutral stride, ~30mpw.)From:Clive, Charlotte, NC, USA. April 27th 2015

Comments: Started with the Lunar Glide 2+ as a trainer and liked it a lot. Had switched from the ASICS GT-2100 series shoe line. Found that the ASICS had too much mobility restraint and were actually causing my right knee, which had been prone to pain both on outer (iliotibialband syndrowme) and inside, to hurt more. Felt much better in the Lunar Glide 2, despite my mild pronation in left foot and moderate pronation in right foot. Bought the LunarGlide 3 and did not like it at first so put it on the shelf. Bought more pairs of the LG 2s. But, when my toes started hurting in the 2 I tried the pair of LG 3s again and discovered that once broken in, they were even better and far more durable. Only got 250-275 miles out of the LG 2s. But, I ran over 500 on a single pair of LG 3s. By that time the LG 6 was out and I recently bought a pair. Wow! The 6s are great. They feel like the 3s but are noticeably lighter. I plan to use the LG 6s for an upcoming marathon. (I had used the 2s before and they worked ok, although they were a bit heavy.) I would expect the 6s to be just as durable as the 3s.From: Anonymous. November 30th 2014

Comments: I started using the LunarGlide as my main mileage trainer with the 5, and I have to say that the 6 is even better. They lightened it up a little, so now I can throw in my orthotic without feeling like a have bricks on my feet, and added a little more forefoot softness and support. The shoe did feel a little more stiff at first than the previous model, but seems to have gotten a lot better in just one or two runs. It's doing a good job of getting me through my 10k training!

Premium shoes are for runners who run daily and/or run high-mileage. Premium shoes use high-end materials and the latest technology to enhance comfort.

Standard shoes are for runners who run daily and/or run high-mileage. Standard shoes use time-tested technologies and materials to meet the needs of consistent running.

Performance shoes are for runners who want shoes for faster paced training, such as tempo runs and interval workouts. Performance shoes are also suitable for daily training but will tend to wear faster than Standard and Premium shoes.

Racing shoes are for runners looking for peak performance in racing 5K to marathon distances and beyond. Racing shoes are also suitable for fast-paced interval sessions. Durability is sacrificed to save weight.

Heel-Toe Offset:

?

Heel-Toe Offset

Heel-Toe Offset refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot of the shoe. The heel is usually higher than the forefoot but is never lower than the forefoot. Some runners believe a lower offset leads to more efficient running. Traditional running shoes have 10-13mm offsets. Moving from higher to lower heel-toe offsets may require a transition period.

Stack Height:

?

Stack Height

Stack height refers to how much shoe is between your foot and the ground. For this search, stack height refers to how much shoe is under your forefoot, as the heel height will be equal to or greater than the forefoot height.

Barefoot: 1-8mm. The shoe generally does not have a midsole and feels like there is no cushioning. This shoe is all about feeling the ground.

Minimal: 9-13mm. The shoe has a thin midsole but there is a lack of cushioning. Racing shoes and minimalist shoes are common here and there is a feeling of being connected to the road.

Low: 14-18mm. The shoe has a midsole and may have added cushioning technologies. Performance and trail shoes are common here and there is still a good feel for the ground.

Medium: 19-23mm. The shoe has a traditional midsole height. Standard and Premium shoes are common here and cushioning technologies are prevalent. Feeling of the ground varies.

High: 24-29mm. The shoe has a thick midsole and extra cushioning. There is less feel for the ground and more feel of the shoe.

Maximal: 30mm plus. The shoe has an extremely thick midsole and extra cushioning. The focus is on feeling a soft shoe and not really feeling the ground.
